pep's room play

we had a lot of fun today hanging out in the nursery...thought i'd share




























momma, you done yet?













can you say, baby doll?













wait a minute...













can't we all just LOVE one another?













my girl

our happy girl

have i yet to say how taken we are with our daughter? each day my love just grows and grows..ahhh! her personality has just developed so much. she is such a mellow baby...she just pretty much kicks back and goes with the flow...for the most part...but her giggles have really started to come out... last night, we snuck in to check on her before going to bed...her eyes were open and este walked right out after seeing that...well, im trying to hide but i know she sees my legs so i bust out laughing. i go up to her crib and she starts giggling...her little deep giggle. awwww! so we held her and said goodnight again...and she went right back to sleep. how could we NOT be in love. we started her on sweet peas yesterday and added sweet potatoes today. lol...she gagged a lil with the peas, but finished them off for dindin tonight. loved the potatoes :) sooo tonight i leave you with pics AND videos..enjoy!


also, today heidi and i were playing the guitar together and olivia and isabelle BOTH were singing along...isabelle will definitely be a soprano. it was the most precious thing!

I ZRBT YOU!

just cause i'm in love!

VICTORY!

last night was wonderful ! and nap numero uno was wonderful as well!

Trial and Error!

I'm learning that there is a lot of trial and error when it comes to parenting! For a few weeks now, isabelle's sleep has been a bit interrupted...and trying to figure out what is going on is crazy! she did get sick this week but the interruptions started before that...so maybe a growth spurt....so we started some rice cereal this week....she is doing so well. the first time even went really well! two of her naps today went GREAT so here's to hoping for great sleep tonight! heidi took the monitor for the last two night so that we could get some rest...oh and rested i do feel!
since my last entry, isabelle has since taken her first dip in a pool, she has ate some cereal, and daddy has gotten her to laugh..continuously...oh wow, she melts my heart! the last two nights she has gone to bed laughing! last night, este was playin peekaboo with her and she would just squeal and belly laugh! well, tonight, este started to pray over her (i always hold her while he does this) and he said something to make me start laughing...really hard. well, im laughing so hard that im getting weak and i look at her and she is laughin as she is watchin her momma lose it...which made me laugh even more! so for the last two nights, i hesitantly put her down to bed and then get butterflies everytime i think of her throughout the night. we are gonna have so much fun! it seems like she just grows and changes over night. and we totally have to have her in her sleep sack for every nap b/c she rolls over and gets stuck...wow!
so enjoying my darling peppy!

daddy had such a great time with pep in the pool! they had a "moment" that lasted for like an hour. so precious!






























us girls have fun
mmm..rice cereal
















shaving kitty!










the most comfy seat at the beach!

HAPPY 5 MONTHS, MY DARLING PEPPY!

i cant believe it has been 5 months of living life with my daughter. aaahhhh, so in love! sometimes i still catch myself thinking, "i cant believe she's here with us!" she truly is a blessing from the Lord!
we have really been enjoying billy, heidi, and olivia being here. olivia turned 18 months yesterday and we spent the day at the beach. once again, it was wonderful! it's cute cause i think isabelle is feeling like a little sister.

super pep!


our beach baby with her board shirt on



sometimes in the car, olivia likes to hold belle's hand...so precious!



we have found the best "spot" at the beach


pep is definitely rolling over more and last night she was facing the exact opposite direction when we went and got her in the morning. she has moved halfway when she has slept in her pack n play but i didnt think it was possible in her crib b/c of the bumper...however, she has found a way! she, not being much of a cuddler, fell asleep in my arms at the beach. wish i could have paused that for a few hours!

GOOOOO BARCA (and chick-fil-a)

today, chick fila was offering free chicken sandwiches for anyone who comes in with their fav. team logo on them. sooo, este got out all his barcelona stuff and we all put it on (including billy who draped a flag on his back) peppy and olive also rose to the occasion! we basically got a free lunch and dinner :)

pep is a rollin machine! yesterday we were eating and she just kept rollin over....and the same has happened today. there's no turnin back now! so proud of my girl!
